In Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, The Depths offer a whole bunch of mysteries to explore that greatly extend the Zelda universe . There are even some quests that you can complete in the Depths. One of the questlines is called "Master Kohga of the Yiga Clan" and to complete it, you have to follow and defeat Master Kohga in four different abandoned mines in the dark and creepy underworld.

To reach the different mines, you can usually just jump into a Chasm nearby and then follow the big stone statues. But when doing so to get to the Abandoned Hebra Mine, you will eventually find yourself in front of a fallen statue that is buried in the wall, making it impossible to proceed.

The fallen statue has caused a lot of confusion in the past and still does for new players. You can't just move it with your Ultrahand or your Recall ability, nor by using bombs or other items. And don't even think that the Zonai Wing lying next to the statue has anything to do with the riddle – it doesn't!

Instead, the solution to this lies on the surface. You have to find a certain Chasm that will take you right into the heart of the Abandoned Hebra Mine.

Un consejo para las Profundidades:

Cuando explores las Profundidades, recomendamos centrarte en activar tantas Raíces de Luz como sea posible en primer lugar. Claro, también puedes usar Semillas de Flor Brillante para iluminar tus alrededores, pero considerando el enorme tamaño del subsuelo, habilitar las Raíces de Luz es mucho más cómodo. Además, te ayuda a mantener una visión general de las áreas que aún no has visitado en absoluto.

Master Kohga & Yiga Clan Explained

The Yiga Clan is a group of rogue Sheikah who have turned their backs on the kingdom of Hyrule. One objective of the group is to eliminate Link as he poses a significant threat to the Yiga.

The leader of the Yiga Clan, Master Kohga, is a boss enemy characterized by his humorous nature and use of powerful, illusion-based attacks. Master Kohga was already present in Breath of the Wild; in Tears of the Kingdom you'll face him several times during your journey.
